US House Republicans take ‘first step’ toward dismantling Department of Education

Republicans in the U.S. House took a significant step to reshape the Department of Education by advancing a legislative package that aligns with President Trump's vision to curtail the department's role. The House Committee on Education and Workforce approved the 10 bills in a largely partisan vote, signaling a shift in how federal education policies might be managed. This move has major implications for educational governance, potentially reducing federal oversight and increasing state control, which could reshape funding and regulatory frameworks in education nationwide.
